Just a thought on this fear about getting help vs. psych help and custody...it is much, much better to show a track record of getting help for whatever issues then it is to have nothing and an ex-spouse show up with documentation about a,b,c.

Unless you are really creating an unsafe or neglectful place, I think it would be really hard to remove custody or visitation rights especially if you are addressing your issues. Thinking like a judge (which I'm not)...if I were to restore custody or visitation to someone, what would I like to see first before that happens...
